Hi everyone! As I mentioned to you before not one but TWO projects were featured in the August Edition of the Reloved Magazine. The issue is now available in stores (and online) and I got my hands on a copy! I am so excited and happy to be featured in this fabulous magazine!
I LOVE hand painted furniture. Anyone who can do hand painting on the furniture is a total genius in my book. I think hand painted furniture is also so unique as no two pieces would be the same.
I am not so brave to try it out myself, but it doesn’t stop me from looking at the projects that other people have done and hopefully soon I will at least attempt it! Here are my favourite hand painted furniture. Continue reading
Do you love to upcycle and relove things? As you know I do.. so I am extremely happy and proud to tell you that two of my projects will be featured in the August’s edition of the Reloved magazine, which will be out on 9th July!!!!
This month’s edition is out already available.
As you know I love to upcycle and transform an old piece into something new. I absolutely love when a forgotten piece is made into something beautiful again.
I have compiled this list of fantastic transformations, which are so gorgeous I simply had to share them with you.
I have done several pieces and my absolute favourite is the lace painting technique, so far I have done two pieces using this technique. Head over to see the transformation and tutorial on how I did this here. Continue reading
There are so many headboards available you will be spoilt for choice. At the moment we are saving for a house, so I didn’t really want to splash out on something that we will most likely change once we move out. So I decided to upcycle an old headboard I came across a few months ago. Continue reading
Hi everyone, I am so excited to tell you that I am taking part in a fantastic competition this month called “The Fab Flippin’ Furniture Contest” organised by a group of wonderful bloggers and this month hosted by Charlotte at Ciburbanity and Carrie from Thirty Eighth Street.
Not only you get to showcase your piece, your transformation and get opportunity to be featured on these blogs, you also get a prize! This month The Old Fashioned Milk Paint Company is the sponsor of the contest!
This competition runs monthly and each month there is a new theme. This month’s theme is – Shabby Chic Storage! I love shabby chic items, so I thought it would be so easy.. but once I started thinking I had so many ideas and wasn’t sure which one to go with.. I decide to test myself a little and try to transform this old dressing table. This was definitely more shabby than chic.. Continue reading
I have seen so many beautiful pieces of furniture done with lace painting and I really wanted to give it a go. I think it gives such a beautiful and unique finish and is such a great way to dress a dated piece.
I didn’t have to wait too long as I got this set of drawers which was in need of some serious TLC and was desperate for a transformation.
It was an old set of drawers, it was very sturdy but it was damaged on the outside, the sides of it were chipped and it just looked so plain. Continue reading
